England on the Eve of a General Election. lALFOUS'S IEISH BILL A FAHUBE. Dom't Seem to Satisfy Anybody and th Tory Leader Appreciate the Fact He Free an Appeal to the People on the Home Rale Ioe The French Premier Given a Fa'l Iterauxe lie Straddled" New Cabinet 'Wanted The Deacon Tragedy. London, Ft-!. The Irish local govern ment bill, which the Conservatives prom ised as one of the measures to be pro posed at thi session of parliament, was read for the first time Thursday night amid derisive cheers and laughter of the Gladtonin and Lome rulers, who later in expressing their views deemed hardly able to End words of sufficient force to rroperly represent the scorn they felt for the bill. It was in their opinion worse than no bill. The Conservatives fre quently cheered the bill, but their enthn feiasrn was no match for the howls of derision with which it was received by the opposition. It fcniU the Standard. The portions of the bill that raised the loudest storm of objections are those which provide safeguards against corrup tion, and what would be called in America boodlery. TLis. the Irish and Gladstone members considered an insult to the Irish people. But while some of the Liber als profess to believe that the bill was in troduced to be abandoned and others think it mhiht pass a second reading, but could never get through the committee, the Standard stoutly declares that the ftovernment will proceed with it and will have the support of the Liberal Unionists. There may be some differences as to de tails, but the main features of the bill are approved by all Unionists. The Standard says: "The measure carries out those conceptions of policy which have always found favor in the Unionist party." The Telegraph Doesn't Like It. The Telegraph remarks that those who would fain have supported the bill found nothing to say in its defense. The bill is in no sense a fulfillment of the govern ment's pledges. The ground plan of the measure is good, but the safeguarding clauses are open to more or less objection, and one is provocative of positive ridicule. The governront cannot that deny they have offered Ireland something signally inferior to that given to the rest of the kingdom. If she deserves nothing better, they were wrong in introducing the bill and cannot escape the obvious dilemma in which ;hey have placed themselves. It is now for the government to consider whether or nut it is better to drop than to try to amend the bill. AN APPEAL TO THE ELECTORS. Hal four Th inkit it Should Not be Longer leferred. It is said that Half our was strongly af fected by the maimer in which his speech on the bill was received and that he after wards conferred with leading Tories in his private room t the bouse of commons. Some of the utterances at this conference Lave leaked out. Balfour, it appears, pointed out that it was not only useless but dangerous to defer any longer an appeal to the electors and that everv day the session was prolonged increased the difficulties of the situation. He said that. as a measure for the conciliation of Ire land, the local government bill was evi dently a failure and that the issue would have to be fought out distinctly on the question of parliamentary home rule. These sentiments met with general approval. The question wiil probably come nn at a cabinet mesttnst to 1 held today, when, it is thought by many, the government may decide to dissolve. If the session is pro longed the government will have to face on March 8 the dancerous issue of Welsh disestablishment. It is known that manv of the Liberal Unionist adherents of the ministry are in favor of disestablishment in Wales, and the Liberals intend to make a strong point of the question in the coin ing general election, while it is at the same time a subject that the Tories are anxious to avoid for fear of alienating the 'onconfornii-ts who support the anti home rule programme. Defended by The Times. The London Times declares that Balfour has displayed a complete mastery of de tails of a very complicated and technical subject. The safeguards proposed would probably never interfere with the free ac tion of the councils. The trial clause is really nothing particularly new. There i a checksimilar in the Irish poor law. The -factitious rage Into which the Gladstonians and the Irish members worked themselves is really amusing. We doubt whether they will be able to stir up the English and Scotch electors by relating the wrongs of judicially deposed county councilors." Other Editorial Opinion. The Daily News says nothing more ex traordinary, than this bill was ever sult mitted to parliament. Balfour's strongest enemies never imagined that he could have devised so thoroughly bad and hope less a measure. The Chronicle thinks the bill an honest attempt but that it fails to please anybody. It is good ao far as it goes, but it does not go far enoegh. The Pall Mall Gazette hopes, for Balfour's Jake, that the rumor he opposed it is true. The contents, it says, are stupid. It goes without Baying that all the Irish home rule papers oppose and deride the bill. FRENCH MINISTERIAL CRISIS. ec was trying to -i.ile two nurses tuuiuer rnt directions," To satisfy the Radicals be Introduced a bill which gives the state authori y over church associations that is resenteii by the church party, and to sat isfy the Utter he didn't intend to push the bill to a vut-.

President Carnot accepted the resigna tions of the ministers vesterday. He had iong onference with I)e Frevcinet before concluding upon acceptance, and the pre mier toM the president that his action could not be recalled, and that the course of the cl:amler left no choice between dis honor and resignation. After the defeat oi l!ie in liistry Thursday there was a re markable scene in the eliumler. At fi-st U.e niaji rity was as thunderstruck as the minority. They had hardly expected to overt hro v the ministry by such an extra ordinary vote. "til l lleiine" People Wake I" p. The ft Mowers of the old regime, who had sat in calm hauteur dav alter day watching the onward sweep of the current beyond t:ieir control, suddenly awoke to a sense of t he result. They threw aside dig nity and began embracing, and some evin kissing etch other, irately nobles, from remote r arts of France, where loyalty to the churc i and royal house is born in the people, f rirot their reserve and danced aliout like dervishes iu their delight at the det. tt of the ministry. The minorit v. on the o her side answered the shouts with yells and execrations. FOUND A PARALYSIS CURE. The PUcoTerv a French Physician Claims to Have Made. P.r.:s, leb. 20.

Mr. Washington, of Tennessee, was also detained by the unexpected an, nouncement that his committee would have to hear m nie testimony to be pre sented by witnesses who had come all the way from Utah. Rather a curious and somewhat annoying feature of the excur sion were the importunities made by per sons who had not been invited, but who were anxious to take the trip to the World's fair city.
